Chapter 739 - Chicken Dinner on the Cliff! (Part 3)

“4AM-Vic killed Navi-Ubah with vehicle explosion!”

“4AM-Vic killed AHQ-K3 with vehicle explosion!”

20 Kills!

The viewers in the live audience and live stream channel were stunned silly when they saw the double kill!

Using the revolver to detonate the car…

That was within reason.

Ubah’s jeep was already smoking anyway, and Liu Zilang’s revolver was ‘McCree-level’. Hence, it was understandable that the jeep exploded from the shot.

The problem was…

Where had the extra kill come from?

On the tournament screen, the caster replayed the scene where Liu Zilang pulled off the extreme stunt using the natural geography of the place. The spectators were in awe.

Nobody had expected him to score two kills within the blink of an eye…

Everyone still had questions in their head. The caster replayed the scene of the double kill earlier.

On the tournament screen.

After the car had flown over Liu Zilang’s head, Liu Zilang was seen to have immediately got off the ground. Swiftly aiming with his revolver, he then tap-fired a string of bullets at the jeep that was flying off the cliff!

Just as the jeep was about to hit the surface of the sea, the barrel of Liu Zilang’s revolver flashed once more and a 7.62mm bullet was shot.

Boom!

A ball of light expanded from the jeep. Accompanied by a ball of fire, a shockwave expanded in all directions. The jeep had suddenly transformed into a ‘Hell Jeep’.

Everyone’s eyes nearly popped out of their sockets!

The thing that surprised them was not the eardrum-shattering explosion, but rather a silhouette at the edge of the safe zone that was right under the jeep…

There was no mistake.

That silhouette belonged to K3 from team AHQ.

After the second-last circle had refreshed, K3 had decided to wait in hiding in the water to improve his rank.

In this version of the game, bullets could not penetrate the surface of the water. Hence, he was safe unless someone deliberately threw an explosive at him.

He had not expected trouble to come flying his way just as he emerged from under the water to take a breath…

At that moment, K3 was suffering a mental breakdown.

As for the countless viewers in the live audience and the live stream channel, they could not do anything but stare at their screens with their eyes bulging in their sockets. Not to mention, their tongues were hanging from their mouths!

“Σ(っ°Д°;)っ”

“I submit! How’s that even possible?”

“I feel sorry for K3. He didn’t bother anyone!”

“It’s not a matter of him looking for trouble. When ‘that guy’ comes looking for you, you can’t run!”

“Bahaha, this is killing me! Ubah turned into Ghost Rider!”

“I’m writing this down! I’ll do this to whoever dares run me over!”

“To the diligent student writing this in his notebook. Do you think any random person can pull off what Vic just did?”

“LOLOL I can feel a chill in the wind…”

“…”

At the edge of the cliff.

Liu Zilang, who had just escaped death, let out a long sigh of relief. He was also surprised at the ‘buy one get one free promotion’ when he detonated the jeep.

Liu Zilang felt a pang of pity when he saw the two crates floating in the sea.

He knew that he would not be able to loot them.

The seaside cliff was known for its sheer drop and uneven terrain.

Someone could climb up or down if they were proficient and diligent at jumping. However, one had to be suicidal to do so in the final circles of a match.

Seconds passed and the time for the blue circle to continue shrinking toward the center of the safe zone came.

The few people below the cliff were not affected much by the circle. On the other hand, the ones on top found their living space being constricted as the circle shrunk.

Once the people beyond the safe zone started moving, sounds of gunfire erupted. They eventually became a ceaseless din on top of the cliff.

For the people below the cliff, they were not able to directly interfere with the battle even though they could hear the commotion.

However, they could throw grenades!

Like trebuchets in a siege, the people started flinging frag grenades toward the top of the cliff with overhand throws.

The battlefield instantly became a chaotic mess.

However, if one looked closely enough, there was order amid the chaos. The situation on top of the cliff could be easily summarized by ‘people in the safe zone shooting at people outside of it’.

That, while people in the safe zone were also shooting at each other.

Of course, there were exceptions to this.

“Oh! What an amazing double instant-snipe combo! Here comes Master Ze!” the commentary yelled in surprise.

On top of the cliff, a person was seen wielding an M24 and dashing at extremely fast speeds. With two shots that sounded like thunderclaps, he took out an opponent that was waiting for him at the edge of the cliff and successfully entered the safe zone.

However, just when he had hidden behind cover, a dull heavy gunshot rang out.

Splat!

Shen Zeyan who was next to a boulder that could have shielded him, had a cloud of blood explode from his back. Even with a level three military vest protecting him, his health dropped by more than half!

“Oh my god! It’s an AWM!”

“That instant-sniping… don’t tell me it’s Satan?”

“It’s not Satan! Look! It’s Vivian from team SKK!”

The caster cut the camera to the scene of the incident as the commentary cried in surprise.

Vivian had been spray-firing with her rifle when someone stole her kill.

Her fiery temper had caused her to go berserk, and she pulled out her AWM to hunt for the thief!

The first person she saw was Shen Zeyan who had just entered the safe zone. Her rifle was aimed straight at him.

From God’s perspective on the caster’s camera, the kill-stealing thief was quickly found.

The viewers were not surprised. Rather, they were thinking, ‘It’s ‘that guy’ again’.

Just as they had guessed, the perpetrator was Liu Zilang. He was wielding a fully automatic MK14 that was equipped with an 8x scope.

“Tsk tsk! What a bountiful harvest for Vic! He managed to score another three kills in one motion.”

“Yup. I was watching the two people fighting each other ever since they entered the safe zone. He happened to kill-steal one of them.”

“He’s quite the chicken thief. He still has some in his bowl and he’s already looking at the pot. The two kills earlier weren’t enough, and he had to steal Vivian’s kill.”

“Heheh, so that means Master Ze took a bullet for Vic?”

“Hm… that seems to be the case.”

“Now, there’s only Vic, Master Ze and Vivian on top of the cliff. With six more people below the cliff, there are only nine survivors left.”

“We just have to see how the last circle will refresh. If the circle appears on the top of the cliff, there’s virtually no redemption for the six people below. If the circle appears below the cliff though, it will be equally hard for the three up there to survive.”

“It’s like flipping a coin. Whether it lands on heads or tails, it’s up to fate. There’s no chance that it’ll land on its side, heh-”

Without warning…

An awkward silence enveloped the commentary platform. Su Changming did not get to finish his second “heh”.

While they were analyzing the situation on the battlefield, the blue circle coincided with the safe zone and the circle refreshed.

The new circle appeared on the sheer cliff where no one could have a foothold under normal circumstances…

The commentators on the stage and viewers in the live audience and live stream channel were stunned. Struck by surprise, their eyes became round and shock was written all over their faces!

What kind of jinx was it?

Who… could enter the safe zone?
